we have been taught that there is no need to interact
stare at the screen you always keep in front of your face, like a mask
scroll past pictures you’ve already seen of people you don’t even like
obsess over why her picture got more likes than yours
do anything to keep from having real face to face conversation
talking to someone live, not just on a live stream, is our society’s biggest fear
social anxiety, depression, or just that sinking feeling that you don’t belong
It’s real
I’ve felt it myself
I’m not discrediting it
all I’m saying is we have lost an art
we have lost the art of pushing ourselves to make a connection
will we forever be lost behind the mask
